Topical jokes: Sam Allardyce, US election and UK politics

Also in this latest topical jokes round-up, we mock plans for a free baby box in Scotland; Mariah Carey’s New Year fiasco; a Labour’s MP defects to Sellafield; Ed Miliband’s image is used for a generic flu story in the US; Richard Hammonds offends gay people; and the Red Cross says the NHS is in crisis.

2016 has been horrific in terms of high profile deaths – in that none were hard-right politicians.
